About Us
At Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts, we’re all business… mostly!

Imagine working for a global hotel group with over 6,000 hotels in nearly 100 countries – where your career could take you anywhere in the world. No need to imagine – this is where it can begin.

Terrigal is one of the Central Coast’s most iconic beachside spots. With great restaurants, cafes, and bars, plus seasonal menus and sweeping ocean views at Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific, we’re the place locals love and visitors seek out.

A Day in the Life
Reporting to the Executive Chef and working with a supportive kitchen leadership team, you’ll play an important role across our Food & Beverage operations. From Meribella Restaurant & Bar, Conference & Events, In-Room Dining, through to our buzzing Terrigal Beach House, no two days are the same.

We’re currently seeking levels of Commis Chef and higher – from Breakfast through to Conferencing & Events and our busy Beach House. Both full-time and part-time opportunities are available.

What We’re Looking For

Full working rights in Australia

Experience in cooking

A strong knowledge of kitchens and hospitality, with a love for great food and service

Team players who bring passion, creativity, and energy to every shift

What We Offer
At Crowne Plaza Terrigal Pacific, we value your time, your career, and your lifestyle. Here’s how we support you:

Rosters weeks in advance – so you can plan your life outside work

Your birthday off (paid) – because you deserve to celebrate!

Discounted hotel stays – both locally and globally (yes, that means international!)

Opportunities for growth and career development within IHG – one of the world’s largest hotel groups

Free duty meals & full uniform provided

Work + Beach Life
This isn’t just another chef role. Here, you get the unique benefit of working right by the ocean. Whether it’s:

Starting your morning with a swim before breakfast service,

Sneaking in a surf between shifts, or

Winding down with a beach walk after a busy day —

you’ll be living and working in one of the most stunning spots on the Central Coast. No long city commute. Just fresh air, ocean views, and a lifestyle to match your career.

Why Join Us?
Because here, you’ll be more than just a chef. You’ll be part of a global team where you can belong, grow, and make a real difference – all while working just steps from the sand at Terrigal Beach.

So if you’re ready to take your next step – whether it’s building your career, broadening your skills, or just joining a great team – we’d love to hear from you.
